cheers, dont mind a little work, being a moto-trials guy this is new to me, i see loads online - not overly worried bout weight as im a big guy and used to a beta and downhill bike. i assume thry are all universal and fit everything from v-brakes to maguras?

cheers guys - loven the adivice, hadda take what i could get, no one wanted to post to northern ireland and it's easier to get a bike to race on the roads in my estate north west 200 and ulster gp just round the corner. so, i thought steel was strong, my we the people is 4130 through out, should i drop the steel on this and go alu? i run fat bars etc on my 2012 beta so this feels really lite - i hate the feel of carbon as i race bmx and refuse to ride such lifeless ridget materials - im old school lol!

@bing - maybe a lil above my budget, every bike i enquire about is either sold or "will not post" i cant post much here or find the pm's - think because im new, not sure on brands or that to be honest, really needa read up. -
